In an office in NERV HQ

It seems this boy has a troubled past like the other children . Gendo said while watching everything that happened in the test room.

What are you thinking Ikari? Fuyutzuki said .

I was thinking that we make him a pilot.

I think that having him fight bare handed is much more efficient than piloting an EVA . Fuyutzuki said while watching the recorded battle with Unit 01.

I agree , that's why I have already classified him as the sixth child.

The sixth?

Yes the fifth child is living somewhere else until he is needed , witch will be soon.

Will this boy affect our plans in any way? Fuyutzuki said to the commander.

No , on the opposite he will speed things up due to his abilities.

At that moment one of the scientists entered the room

Commander Ikari we have new information regarding the ship.

Really , what have you found out? Gendo asked the scientist

Sir I warn you that the information I'm about to tell you may affect the Instrumentality project.

I understand , proceed.

We were able to engage the ship's computers online.

And what did you find out?

We have found a trademark logo of another company inside the ship's main screen. It said "Property of Capsule Corporations".

I've never heard of this corporation , what else did you find.

We found out the ship's use and purpose.

So what does the ship do?

It's no ship Sir…..it's a Time machine.

The commander flinched slightly .

A….Time machine….but that's not possible! How could someone create a Time machine? Fuyutzuki said looking for a reaction from the commander.

But it seems that it is not from this reality's time line .

Are you saying that this boy came from another universe.

Yes Sir .

And what proof do you have of this.

We recovered a world map inside the Time machine and a picture.

Let me see the map.

The scientist hands the map over to the commander who almost rips it off his hand.

What is this? This map says that this is Earth , yet the biography is completely different.

And the picture Sir here it is.

He grabs the picture and sees a young Trunks with an older looking woman with blue hair and a man with spiked up black hair.

For the first time in many years he was left without words…

It wasn't the persons in the picture what surprised him, but what was behind them. There was a futuristic looking city with tubes connecting the buildings, and hover cars flying above the city , and a pterodactyl flying in the horizon.

Commander? Are you all right? Fuyutzuki whispered to him.

Can you get the machine to work? He finally said still looking at the picture.

Sir there's also a message in the back of the picture.

He turned the picture and read the message out loud.

To Trunks my dear son

Trunks know this, no matter what happens to us , no matter what

happens to the world,even if the world around you crumbles

and you are left in the darkness alone, know that we will always

be with you in your heart and in your soul , nothing will ever

separate us. No matter what happens don't let it keep you down

maybe I won't be with you in your new life, but as long as you

never forget the good times we will always be together.

we love you honey and we'll always love you

From your loving mom and

Dad: Bulma and Vegeta.

...Thank you for the information….and what of the time machine? Gendo said weakly.

We can't make it work because it needs a pass code.

Tell Trunks to come here immediately , we need that code.

Yes Sir

He opened the door and left

As the scientist was walking out the door he saw Rei with tears dropping down her face.

She tried to get away but the commander noticed her.

REI AYANAMI AND TRUNKS! Report to the Commander for interrogation.

Rei entered the room trying to hide her tears from the commander .

( Trunks what have you been through?) She thought to herself.

Shortly after Trunks arrived at the commanders office.

He noticed Rei standing in front of the commanders desk.

( Poor girl , I wonder what her past was like?) He thought as he entered the room.

The door closed behind them locking them inside with the commander.

Rei everything you will hear in this room must never come out is that understood.

Understood Commander Ikari.

( Commander Ikari? Is he a relative of Shinji?)

And that goes for you too Trunks am I clear.

Yeah , clear.

Know that this interrogation will not be recorded in the MAGI system ,so you are free to speak your mind.

Rei the only reason you are here is to be witness to the interrogation.

Yes Sir.

Let's commence with the first question.

Is your name really Trunks?

Yes.

And what about your second name?

I don't have a second name.

I see.

Where did you come from?

West city.

This city does not exist . Now tell me where did you come from?

I told you I live in West City.

And why can't I find it in files.

Because…

Because what.

Because it's not on that map.

Oh and in what map is it in?

It's in another ….

It's in this map isn't it? Gendo said as he shows him the map ofDBZ world.

That map has no use. Trunks said looking at the map.

And why is that?

Because that's the map of my world , not this one.

So you admit that your not from this world.

Yes

Tell me what is your planet's name?

Earth.

What! But how can it be possible for two planets to share the same name?

That's because it's not another planet…. .it's another reality.

So how is this reality of yours?

It's very different from this one.

What , you mean the advanced city's and flying cars.

How did you know? Trunks said surprised.

I saw it in this picture. He showed Trunks the picture.

Here Rei I know you want to see it closer , I saw how you looked at it in curiosity.

Yes I do wish to see the picture closer.

She grabbed the picture and observed it's details.

Do you notice something different Rei?

Yes I suggest that the two persons with Trunks are his parents. And that the city behind is more advanced than any in this world. And the prehistoric creatures in existence.

The prehistoric creatures signify that first impact never happened.

That is right Rei but that's not what I was talking about?

What is the difference between this picture and this world?

That there is happiness, that everyone is carefree.

That's right in the picture Trunks, I've noticed that your younger and happier , and then I look at you older and full pain.

What's your point here? Trunks asked confused.

What happened to take away all that happiness?

They appeared…..
